LEIPZIG, Germany/FERNEY-VOLTAIRE, France: In order to address the global burden of dental caries, the FDI World Dental Federation has announced its first Global Caries Initiative Conference, which is to be held in July in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. The event, organised in collaboration with the International Association for Dental Research and the Brazilian Dental Association, will mark the start of the organisation’s ten-year campaign to eliminate tooth decay by the year 2020, officials said.
According to the FDI, caries remains the most common dental disease worldwide. Although there has been a decline of dental decay in industrialised countries in recent years through fluoridated toothpaste and improved dental hygiene, in most low-income countries, up to 90 per cent of all people suffer from the condition, which often remains untreated.
The Rio conference is intended to address these inequalities amongst other topics. It will be for dental educators and scientists, as well as presidents of dental associations and government dental officers. Speakers from North America and Europe have been invited to address the need for changing the current paradigm of diagnosis, prevention and restoration of dental caries, and to present the implications of these for its future prevention and management.
The conference is currently open for registration. Fees are €80 for delegates from Latin America and €180 for those from other countries.
